Luus
Luus is the Now and Forever Queen of Bassa (styles include Luus-Kinza as empress and Luus-Marcela). She is the Empress who hands the rotating throne to Carolien-Amaia at the novel’s coronation hinge.
Empress of Bassa’s line
Empress Luus-Kinza commissions palace expansions for beast handlers and Bassa security, with Master of the Imperial Court Lord Dinasel at Kelowan’s Queen’s Station. Helena privately calls Luus insecure about security.
Luus-Kinza hands the throne to Carolien-Amaia for sixty years — the reset that also frames Bekket’s liaison with Helena and Thyra’s birth.
